you know, when the leader of hamas was asked about it, not only did he not talk about whether hamas was responsible, he actually praised the bombing. >> well, i can not speak on behalf of hamas. i didn't hear that particular leader. but our position on violence and counter violence is clear. the plo does not condone the killing of civilians, be it israelis or palestinians. if you look at the last week of this confrontation, you know very well that 140 palestinians have been killed. 1,000 were wounded. it's very clear who paid the heavier price in this confrontation. >> all right. so let's talk about the conditions of the cease-fire. one of them in terms of the weapons. one of the terms was there is no passage of weapons into gaza. this is obviously significant. one bus alone last year 50 tons of weapons were found being smuggled into the gaza strip. there were mortar shells, anti-missiles, ammunition, assault rifles. is there any way hamas is going to stop smuggling weapons? that one seems to hard to believe. >> the only way to do that is to, one, end the blockade against the gaza strip

how many rockets does hamas have in its possession, and if hamas is able to get out of this with some rockets, that's a huge symbolic victory for them. >> is this something we've seen before, or is this colored by the arab spring and all the uprisings there? >> i think this is different because you have a change with the israeli revolution. you saw last week shells in israel. perhaps by mistake, but they did it and israel returned fire. you know it poses a major threat and now you have an egyptian government that is no longer going to be quiet when israel does retaliate. you had the prime minister of egypt today. egypt will be very careful not to break with israel, not to break camp david, of course, but nonetheless, it's opening up that border and it's going to be easier for hamas to elicit this rocket territory. i think that has them much more worried and much more willing and able to go into places like gaza to try to deal with the threat and deal with the ruse of a threat. >> nick, you mentioned the egyptian president. i want to you listen to a fiery speech he made today about the

we want hamas to stop shooting at our civilians. we've had 5.5 million israeli under hamas rocket fire. that's well over half of our population and it's very simple. they just have to stop shooting at us and stop creating a situation where they can shoot at us every week. that's the situation that existed before this round of fighting. we have to have a different status quo on the ground. once that is on the payable. we will be interested. >> there are reports, of course, that benjamin netanyahu and mack mu abbas will both meet with ban ki-moon. i wonder if you think there's a possibility abbas and moon will meet directly? >> i know prime minister is ready to meet abbas in time, any place. he said it many times, in jerusalem, in ramallah, which is only a seven minute drive away. in new york, anywhere. >> okay, let me ask you about a ground war. when you're talking about the situation, if there isn't a cease-fire, you have 75,000 troops now masked to go into gaza. only 30% of the israeli public support a ground war according to the p

hamas doesn't recognize your right to exist. the plo does. abbas. is it possible the win today gives him a boost? that this is something that is good for you? >> first, it raised the question if he represents the whole palestinians or only half of them. only the west bank as you have just mentioned. hamas don't recognize the right of israel to exist, so what we are dealing with here is the palestinian people. that's first. the second thing is more important. they are violating their signature with israel. it makes those that are opposing the peace process in israel and in the arab world much more powerful because they always tell us, don't believe the palestinians. they will never, never implement their commitments and they show us once again that we are committed not to make a lateral move. we'll negotiate for the final start agreement. unfortunately, those that oppose the idea to them was the palestinians become more powerful and the community helped them to accept or to convince the israel public opinion that there is no one for us. >> thank you
